ADAM LAPINSKI, OF CHICAGO ILLINOIS.

SAD-IRON SUPPORT.

SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 740,876, dated Gctober 6, 1903. Application filed April 27, 1903. Serial No. 154,499. I (No model.)

To ctZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ADAM LAPINSKI, a subject of the Emperor of Russia, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sad-Iron Supports; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

My invention relates to a novel construction in a sad-iron support, the object being to provide a support which can be adjusted to any desired height to accord with the level of the surface upon which the sad-iron is to be used; and it consists in the features of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings, illustrating my invention, Figure l is a top plan view, and

Fig; 2 a central vertical longitudinal section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1, of asad-ironsupport constructed in accordance with my invention.

My said device is designed particularly for the use of tailors, the sad-irons used by them being very heavy and requiring great exertion in raising them from the table to the pressboard. By keeping the sad-iron on a level with the surface on which it is to be used a large part of this unnecessary exertion is obviated, thereby saving considerable labor. To this end my device consists of a frame A, practically conforming in shape with the sad-iron, but of larger dimensions, which is adapted to be secured to the table by means of bolts B passing through cross-bars O, forming part of the base of the frame A, the latter having vertical walls partly cut out to reduce weight and being open at its upper end. A similarlyshaped member D is adapted to fit telescopically within the frame A and'carries a ribbed plate E, upon which the sad-iron is adapted to be supported. The said member D is pro frame conforming in shape with a sad-iron and open at its upper end, adapted to be socured upon a table and provided adjacent its upper open end with a plurality of openings adapted to receive bolts, and a member conforming in shape with and telescopically movable relatively to said-first-named member, mounted therein, said last-named member being provided with a plurality of series of openings adapted to successively register with said openings in said first-named member to receive said bolts and be supported thereby at any desired height relatively to said firs t-named member, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature inpresence of two witnesses.

ADAM LAPIN SKI.
